In the lounge, the SI is pleased to present the work of young Swiss photographer, FABIAN MARTI. Riffing off Carron’s subtle ironies and critiques through his epic statues, Marti picks on the genre of vanitas. Mortality and desire, at once richly depicted in Marti’s project, are mocked as the iconography du jour is repeated and degraded through his play with mass replication.

Gallery Hours: tues-sat 11-6
